Ioana Ciornei 2de16ebe78 selftests: net: extend lib.sh to parse drivers/net/net.config
Extend lib.sh so that it's able to parse driver/net/net.config and
environment variables such as NETIF, REMOTE_TYPE, LOCAL_V4 etc described
in drivers/net/README.rst.

In order to make the transition towards running with a single local
interface smoother for the bash networking driver tests, beside sourcing
the net.config file also translate the new env variables into the old
style based on the NETIFS array. Since the NETIFS array only holds the
network interface names, also add a new array - TARGETS - which keeps
track of the target on which a specific interfaces resides - local,
netns or accesible through an ssh command.

For example, a net.config which looks like below:

	NETIF=eth0
	LOCAL_V4=192.168.1.1
	REMOTE_V4=192.168.1.2
	REMOTE_TYPE=ssh
	REMOTE_ARGS=root@192.168.1.2

will generate the NETIFS and TARGETS arrays with the following data.

	NETIFS[p1]="eth0"
	NETIFS[p2]="eth2"

	TARGETS[eth0]="local:"
	TARGETS[eth2]="ssh:root@192.168.1.2"

The above will be true if on the remote target, the interface which has
the 192.168.1.2 address is named eth2.

Since the TARGETS array is indexed by the network interface name,
document a new restriction README.rst which states that the remote
interface cannot have the same name as the local one. Keep the old way
of populating the NETIFS variable based on the command line arguments.
This will be invoked in case DRIVER_TEST_CONFORMANT = "no".

Also add a couple of helpers which can be used by tests which need to
run a specific bash command on a different target than the local system,
be it either another netns or a remote system accessible through ssh.
The __run_on() function is passed through $1 the target on which the
command should be executed while run_on() is passed the name of the
interface that is then used to retrieve the target from the TARGETS
array.

Also add a stub run_on() function in net/lib.sh so that users of the
net/lib.sh are going through the stub only since neither NETIFS nor
TARGETS are valid in that circumstance.
